SCULPTURE EXHIBITION
PHASE VIII
PUBLIC POLL RESULTS REVIEW
INTRODUCTIONS
PUBLIC POLL SUMMARY:
•Poll was posted on Arts Orange County’s website SparkOC.com
•33 works qualified by the Arts Commission were included for consideration
•Participants were allowed to vote for up to three favorite works
•Poll was open on SparkOC.com from Dec. 10, 2022 through Jan. 10, 2023, and
promoted by both the City of Newport Beach and Arts Orange County
•Order of depicted works was automatically shuffled for every voter so that no
work would enjoy any positioning advantage
•Finalists as chosen by the public poll must still pass a thorough review by our
installation service, confirmation of availability in the condition submitted, and
a successful execution of a contract with the artist. Alternates may take the
place of finalists in any event of a Finalist failing to pass these steps.
•Final vote on whether to approve the presented finalists to be installed rests
with the Newport Beach City Council.
VOTE AUDIT SUMMARY:
•Voters were required to provide a valid email address, report the ZIP code of their
residence, and complete a reCAPTCHA security step to affirm that they weren't a bot.
•There were 264 successfully-logged entries, registering a total of 726 votes. For
comparison, 1,084 votes were received for Phase VII and 1,091 for Phase VI.
•After downloading the raw logs of all votes, ArtsOC Staff deleted any entries which did
not provide a Newport Beach ZIP code.
•The poll also captured the IP address, time of voting, and type of device used to vote
with. ArtsOC Staff used these tools to identify potential cases of double-votes -for
example, if two votes from the same IP address happened within minutes, voted for
the same works, and had similar enough email addresses such as NAME@gmail.com
and SAMENAME@yahoo.com, one of those votes would be deleted. If the email
addresses were different enough, staff deferred on the side of permitting them, since
it could have been the product of multiple people voting on the same computer from
the same household.
•After these steps were completed, ArtsOC had a validated total of 253 Newport Beach
residents casting 702 votes.
